Six Senses is delighted to announce the exclusive visit to Thailand of the rising star Michelin Chef Jean Baptiste Natali. Chef Natali will be with us for a very limited time, early reservations are highly recommended.

“Hostellerie La Montagne / Restaurant Natali” is owned and operated by Chef Natali and his wife Helene. Situated in the Haut Marne region of France.

After 11 years of traveling, where he learnt with Christian Willer (La Palme d’Or, Hotel Martinez, Cannes); Daniel Boulud, New York; Hotel La Mamounia, Marrakech and The Connaught Hotel London, Jean Baptiste returned to his origins in 2001 to give a hand to his father. One year later he was awarded his first Michelin star, which he has been retaining ever since – along with the much coveted title of Young European Talent.

In 2005, Jean Baptiste invested in a beautiful country house in Colombey les Deux Eglises, a village where the illustrious General de Gaulle liked to retire away from his public life. This beautifully renovated property is now showcasing his talent while offering 8 elegant rooms opening onto an orchard and the surrounding forests.

Illustrious guests include French President Sarkozy and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Manish Puri, General Manager commented „As part of our programme of hosting the finest culinary events in the region, it is truly an honour to welcome Chef Natali to Six Senses Yao Noi Beyond Phuket”.

At 31 years old, Jean Baptiste is now dreaming of a second star…
